Frazier went 3-for-4 in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

Frazier has gone 6-for-18 (.333) over eight games in August. He continues to fill a part-time role between second base and right field against right-handed pitchers. The veteran lifted his average back above the Mendoza Line at .205 with a .577 OPS, three home runs, 17 RBI, 26 runs scored and two stolen bases through 235 plate appearances this season.

Frazier is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Frazier finds himself on the bench for the third game in a row and for the second time against a right-hander (Chris Flexen). With Frazier getting on base at just a .167 clip since the All-Star break, his brief run as the Royals' everyday leadoff hitter looks to be over.

Frazier is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

Frazier is slashing just .146/.205/.220 with one home run, five RBI and a 22.2 percent strikeout rate across 43 plate appearances in July. Salvador Perez will serve as the designated hitter Sunday and bat in the cleanup spot against Cubs right-hander Javier Assad.

Frazier is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

With left-hander Shota Imanaga taking the mound for the Cubs on Saturday, the lefty-hitting Frazier will retreat to the dugout while Vinnie Pasquantino serves as the designated hitter. Frazier went 1-for-4 with a two-run single and one run scored in Friday's 6-0 win over Chicago.

Frazier is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Arizona.

EDGE Analysis

Frazier's defensive versatility has earned him a regular spot atop the Royals' batting order, but he'll take a seat Tuesday against a left-handed pitcher. The lefty-hitting Frazier is batting 5-for-33 with a homer and five runs during July.

Frazier will start at second base and bat leadoff in Monday's game against the Diamondbacks.

EDGE Analysis

Though the versatile Frazier doesn't appear to have a permanent home at any one position, he's settled into an everyday role atop the batting order for Kansas City with MJ Melendez (ankle) landing on the injured list over the All-Star break. Frazier will serve as the Royals' table setter for the eighth straight contest, despite slashing an underwhelming .167/.259/.292 over the prior seven games.

Frazier went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's 5-4 loss to the Red Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Frazier's homer was his first since June 8. He's gone 4-for-19 (.211) with three RBI over five games since he returned from a right thumb strain. The Royals have used him at second base, third base, right field and designated hitter over the last week, which makes it appear Frazier has supplanted Nick Loftin as the team's top utility man. Frazier is slashing .211/.292/.307 with three homers, two stolen bases, 13 RBI and 20 runs scored across 185 plate appearances this season.

Frazier will start at third base and bat leadoff in Sunday's game in Boston.

EDGE Analysis

Though he'll stick in the lineup for the fifth time in six games as the Royals' leadoff man, Frazier doesn't yet look to be a fixture in the Kansas City starting nine. He's turned in a .235 on-base percentage in his previous four turns atop the lineup, and he's also made starts at four different positions (third base, second base, right field and designated hitter) during that stretch. Instead, Frazier's inclusion in the lineup appears to be a means of Royals manager Matt Quatraro giving rest days to regulars such as Maikel Garcia, who will take a seat Sunday in the series finale.

Frazier (thumb) has returned from his rehab assignment and was reinstated from the 10-day injured list Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Frazier required only one rehab game with Double-A Northwest Arkansas, where he went 0-for-4 with a strikeout, before being cleared to return. Frazier is slashing .211/.297/.299 across 165 plate appearances with the Royals and should mix in at third base and in right field.

Frazier (thumb) began a rehab assignment with Double-A Northwest Arkansas on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Frazier has been on the injured list since June 24 due to a strained right thumb, but he's now been given the green light to test his thumb in a competitive environment. It's unclear how long the 32-year-old will remain in the minors, but a return before the All-Star break remains a possibility.
